Nicotine

Nicotine is an alkaloid found primarily in plants of the nightshade family, notably in tobacco and Duboisia hopwoodii. In addition to natural extraction, it is synthesized and used recreationally for its stimulant and anxiolytic effects. In tobacco leaves, nicotine constitutes about 0.6–3.0% of the dry weight, and smaller, trace quantities occur naturally in other Solanaceae crops such as tomatoes, potatoes, and eggplants. In pure form, nicotine is a colorless to yellowish, oily liquid that readily penetrates biological membranes and acts as a potent neurotoxin in insects, where it serves as a natural antiherbivore toxin.
